The thing to remember about SUS is that it's IIS-based; so all the inherent
problems are being added to ISA. One problem you might face is that if your
outbound web proxy listener or rules are authenticated SUS isn't as smart as
the UI would 
lead you to believe.
You'll be much better off to use packet filters to allow SUS traffic to the
Internet.
